Kim Jong-un Treated with More Respect Than Any U.S. Conservative

That is the world we live in — and one that Obama obviously lives in: one where Kim Jong-un is treated with more respect, and with more understanding (tolerance, anyone?), than any American Republican.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un wants US President
Barack Obama to call him, and does not want war, according to retired
basketball star Dennis Rodman.

Speaking on ABC's This Week with George Stephanopoulos, Mr
Rodman claimed: "He said, 'If you can, Dennis - I don't want [to] do
war. I don't want to do war.' He said that to me."

When questioned about Mr Kim's human rights record, Mr Rodman
said he was not apologising for the North Korean leader, "but as a
person to person, he's my friend."
